XF 2.1 How to edit XF templates and Styles/CSS in IDE/Editor?

[improbable_airtime]

Back in XF 1, I remember there was a plugin you could install that allowed you to edit the XF templates and styles via WebDav. However, I've tried to get something similar working with XF 2 but have been unsuccessful.

Can anyone provide any advice on how I could get this working so I can work in a real workflow instead of in an incredibly lacking browser based editor?

Thanks!

Unmaintained - WebDav support for XenForo 2

This add-on is for style and add-on developers. XenForo 1 had very convenient way to edit templates via WebDav. Unfortunately XenForo 2 doesn't have such functionality, so I've made add-on that adds such functionality. It does same thing as...

We strongly recommend using the built in tools for editing templates on the file system in your preferred editor:
